Our Process (Non-Acute Procedures)
Clear steps, no surprises
We assess your condition, discuss options, and confirm that a procedure is appropriate.
You receive a quote, then we book a dedicated procedure slot (time depends on the procedure).
We’ll tell you what to bring, what meds to avoid (if any), and whether fasting is required.
We explain risks/benefits, get consent, and use local anaesthetic when needed.
Performed with appropriate technique and infection control.
You receive aftercare instructions and we book follow-up if required.
Tip: For wound sutures or abscesses, early assessment is best — don’t wait until it worsens.
What to Bring
Bring your medical aid details and ID/passport. If you have authorisations, bring those too.
Include blood thinners, aspirin, supplements, and any allergies (especially to local anaesthetic).
Wear comfortable clothing, and bring a support person for longer procedures if advised.
